SAQ

1.) Keep all the equipment from the fitness circuit

2.) Have half the players on the outside (in blue bibs) with a football and the other half (in green bibs) in the middle

3.) The players should play a one-two pass (one touch) with the player on the outside and complete any station in the middle before going to a different player to receive another pass

4.) After 1 explosive minute in the middle players should swap with those on the outside and do the same

Session variations:

- Volley's (left and right foot)

- Control with thigh and volley

- Control with chest and pass

- Header with feet on the ground and then a higher header with feet off the ground

- Lie on the floor, jump up and head the ball

crossing and finishing

Crossing and Finishing Practice:

Organisation: The practice startes with the player in the centre circle. He dribbles the ball 10 yards and then plays a quick 1-2 into player A. He then plays the ball into the corner area for player A to run onto. Player A crosses the ball in first time and the two strikers time their run and attempt to score.

Key Coaching Points: Focus on quality of passing in the build up play, quality of crosses, timing of runs from the strikers and the quality of their finishing.
